The only "bigger deal than ACS/PCI" possible IMHO

The only "bigger deal than ACS/PCI" possible IMHO is with CROMTEC. They already have a foot in the Federal procurement system door with their USAF phase one contract. They recently brought on board a former DoD CIO. Why do that unless they needed her expertise for phase two which leads to a DoD wide contract? Phase one at $50K was modest. That says beta testing to me. The pandemic has hit private industry hard. Who else money to spend now that "will put us in the black eventually" but Uncle Sam?
